Pods ?

Is there anywhere on here that explains what the slang terms are?
I just found out BHAF ='s big honkin' air filter
What does PODS stand for? I was thinking Prince Of Darkness injectors (120hp) but I'm probably wrong.

You are correct, it stands for prince of darkness. I haven't seen a thread for slang terms, but it would be a good idea. I know when I first got on here I was scratching my head at some of the terms

PODs are "Prince of Darkness" - injectors. I do believe there is a post somewhere on site that tells what an abreviation stands for.

They are called POD's because they are made by Lucas, known in British motorcycle and car circles as the "Prince of Darkness" due to the unreliable electric systems they made.

Lucas joke:
Why do the British drink warm beer?


Because Lucas makes their refrigerators.

Benjamin b2, a little off topic but I see you're outta that Spokane country.
We're usually down there once a year, I should look you up next time we're there.
Maybe you can show us a good "waterin' hole" ?
